Ohhh yes 😍🍒 cherry pie bites—tiny, sweet, tart, and perfect for snacking or dessert platters. Here’s a simple, foolproof recipe:
Mini Cherry Pie Bites
Ingredients (makes ~12–15 bites)
- 1 can (14 oz) cherry pie filling
- 1 sheet puff pastry or pie dough, thawed
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional, for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F / 190°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut dough into squares (~3×3 inches).
- Add filling
- Place 1–2 teaspoons of cherry pie filling in the center of each square.
- Fold & seal
- Fold into a triangle or rectangle. Press edges with a fork to seal.
- Egg wash
- Beat egg with a splash of water, brush over tops for golden color.
- Optional: sprinkle a little sugar on top for sparkle.
- Bake
- 18–22 minutes until puffed and golden.
- Cool slightly before serving (filling is very hot!).
Pro Tips
- Use fresh or frozen cherries if you want homemade filling.
- Brush edges with water or egg white to seal better.
- Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar or a tiny drizzle of white chocolate for extra indulgence.
If you want, I can also give a super easy one-bite version in a muffin tin—no rolling, no fuss, just quick cherry pie bites ready in under 25 minutes 😏.
Do you want me to do that version?
